Board games are what I would consider the biggest strength of tablet gaming. They are designed to be played through the simple movement of pieces around, and not through the use of complicated menus or hotkeys. As a result a touch screen interface is the perfect interface for them. I would choose my Ipad over my PC any day for a digital board game.

Given that Space Hulk is a board game, it would be completely foolish not to make it for the one platform which excels at board games.
